No way man. Misbah's Pakistan lost two series in SL, lost a test to SL and WI in UAE, drew a test in BD. India under Dhoni was far more superior in Asia, we did lose to England and lost a test each to SA and NZ but used to win far more tests, on some of the flattest pitches we have ever had!

 

Misbah's team was better compared to others but not India.

We didn’t lose against nz in ind

2011-2013 mishbah pak > dhoni ind

Overall ind was better in this period 2008-2013.

So you are saying 2013-2015 india wasn't better than misbah Pakistan? Are you sure? 

 

We smashed Australia 4 0

Never roost a test to n.z under dhoni iirc in India. I fact dhoni was n.z killer. We won in n.z in 2008. But they had a weak side then. Tuffey bowling lmao. Scott styris. 

 

Current Indian side would have rolled that team out 3 0 in n.z itself.

What is worrisome from a World Cricket perspective is that they don't have any test quality pacer who is next in line, apart from Jhye Richardson. 

yes, their stocks are dwindling fast. in comparison, even NZ's second-rung seamers are pretty good, albeit not in SC or Aus.

The biggest differences that I see between the bowling of Australia in 2000 and Australia in 2021 in test matches ....

 

1.  Will to win and knowing how to win. Applies to the whole team of 2000 actually. The current team is mentally fragile.

 

2.  Shane Warne was much much better than Lyon.

 

Just in terms of bowling ability ...

 

There can be no doubt that Cummins is as good as McGrath plus quicker.

 

Not much difference between Hazlewood and Gillespie.

 

Starc is slower than Lee and the fear factor is less. But his wicket taking ability is higher than Lee.

 

The 2000s team did not have a 4th pacer of the quality of Pattinson.

 

Starc is not slower than Brett Lee. May have a bit lower top pace but not on average.
